Definition of space-time in English English dictionary
- Single entity that relates space and time in a four-dimensional structure, postulated by Albert Einstein in his theories of relativity. In the Newtonian universe it was supposed that there was no connection between space and time. Space was thought to be a flat, three-dimensional arrangement of all possible point locations, which could be expressed by Cartesian coordinates; time was viewed as an independent one-dimensional concept. Einstein showed that a complete description of relative motion requires equations that include time as well as the three spatial dimensions. He also showed that space-time is curved, which allowed him to account for gravitation in his general theory of relativity
- The four-dimensional description of events as depicted in the theory of relativity
- The purpose of space-time, in the context of this paradigm, is to allow the one to manifest as many One electron manifests as many individual electrons One mind manifests as many individual minds
- The four-dimensional space whose points are events
- A four-dimensional space used to represent the universe in the theory of relativity, with three dimensions corresponding to ordinary space and the fourth to time Also known as space-time continuum See more about this in the FAQ section
- A concise way of referring to the understanding of the universe as an entity composed of inextricably interwoven space and time; a conception based especially on the theories of Albert Einstein In this view of the universe, anything that happens to alter the condition of space also affects the conditions of time, and vice versa
- the 4-dimensional coordinate system (3 dimensions of space and 1 of time) in which physical events are located
- Space and time seen together as different dimensions of the same thing The universe
- Warp: A crinkle, tear, or bend in the space-time continuum
- four-dimensional world of space and time as visualized in the theory of relativity An event is located in the space-time continuum analogous to a point in three-dimensional space
- Physics: place of observable phenomena The space-time is the phenomena container, according to their extension or quantity aspect (spatial part) and to their duration one (time part) human sees it as a three dimensions' space and a one dimension' time Esotericism: place of the life manifestation in the "Shape" The space-time is the container for the quantitative and qualitative cyclic manifestation of the life in the shape
- absolute space-time
- The Newtonian concept of an unchanging and unchangeable reference system of time and spatial coordinates that is the same for all observers
- spacetime
- An n-dimensional continuum consisting of dimensions of both space & time. Normally spacetime is considered as having 4 dimensions (x, y, z, t), but higher-dimensional spacetimes are often encountered in theoretical physics, e.g. the 5-dimensional spacetime of Kaluza-Klein theory or the 11 dimensions of spacetime in M-theory
- spacetime
- A specific region of the universe with mathematically different properties than the surrounding spacetime. Synonymous with "metric" within the context of general relativity
a Schwarzschild spacetime, a Reissner-Nordström spacetime, etc. as opposed to sense (2) describing the universe's spacetime as a whole: a Minkowski spacetime, a 5-dimensional spacetime, etc.
- spacetime
- The four-dimensional continuum of the three spatial dimensions plus time
An event is a point in spacetime, specified by the coordinates x,y,z and t.
- time-space convergence
- The process, made possible by technological innovations in transportation and communication, by which distant places are brought closer together in terms of the time taken to travel (or send messages) between them
- space–time convergence
- Time–space compression (also known as space–time convergence) is a term used to describe processes that seem to accelerate the experience of time and reduce the significance of distance during a given historical moment
- time-space compression
- Time-space compression is a term used to describe processes that seem to accelerate the experience of time and reduce the significance of distance during a given historical moment. Geographer David Harvey used the term in The Condition of Postmodernity, where it refers to "processes that . . . revolutionize the objective qualities of space and time"
- time-space compression
- Time–space compression (also known as space–time convergence) is a term used to describe processes that seem to accelerate the experience of time and reduce the significance of distance during a given historical moment
- space time continuum
- coordinate system having four dimensions and used in the Theory of Relativity
- spacetime
- the four-dimensional Universe suggested by general relativity
- spacetime
- the four-dimensional combination of space (three dimensions) and time (the fourth dimension) As a consequence of Special Relativity, time and space are not independent of each other and are relative to the motion of an observer
- spacetime
- The four dimensional continuum of the three spatial dimensions plus time
- spacetime
- 1 Our local, solid, 3-D living environment (also referred to as the spacetime continuum) 2 The matter/energy building material of our local 3-D universe 3 A particle evaporation of n-space
- spacetime
- A system of one time and three spatial coordinates, with respect to which the time and place of an event can be specified; also called spacetime continuum
- spacetime
- A continuous, four-dimensional volume operating under a single set of physical laws, sometimes called a "dimension " Our "normal" spacetime consists of our observable physical universe: length, width, depth, and time Outside of normal spacetime, the normal laws of physics may not apply, and such oddities as alternate dimensions and alternate realities may be found
- time and space constants
- set physical quantities
